The Man From U.N.C.L.E (1964-1968) fandom has been so forgotten by time and it's so so sad. Please look at this 1990 fanvid originally edited on VHS that i found all about Ilya Kuryakin being just the poorest little meow meow

Day 1 of discovering "The Man from U.N.C.L.E"

Okay okay, I'm pretty new to this show (I actually hadn't even heard of it until a few weeks ago) and want to share my first impressions just for fun

So, I just watched my first ever episode (The Children's Day Affair S02 E12) and really liked it so far! The colours (bit of autumny with still a lot of summer's green) and the setting in this episode (bit of Switzerland in the beginning of autumn) are really nice and watching the whole thing, I really immediately thought 'This could be the right show for me'. Although I'm not quite sure yet how serious this show is meant to be. (Oh and pls don't spoil that for me; I wanna see how long it takes till I've figured out if it's the American answer to James Bond or a parody). It did feel pretty serious and professional (in comparison to other parodies of that time) but at the same time it was also so silly and somehow weirdly unnecessarily kinky?

What I really loved is the creativity of the show! Like a colourful game of model train psycho terror as climax? Hell yes, 30/10. That's something different! And again the colours and the interesting details really made this episode a pleasure to the eye! I totally loved the tray of flour shooting baguettes and the way Illya shoots underneath the car (? Sorry, no idea how to describe that stunt). And there were still lots of unexpected gadgets and methods even though I'm already used to a lot from my Get Smart! days haha

In terms of favourite character I have to admit that although I originally came here for David McCallum, so far I tend more towards Napoleon Solo. But let's see how that develops bc I'm not 100% happy with him either.

Favourite sentence probably was "I didn't know the cake was loaded!" & bonus point is definitely that they accidentally say my (in movies rarely used) name a few times throughout the episode and who wouldn't love Illya growling one's name? and Napoleon saying it almost affectionately

So yeah, great stuff all in all ;)
